Java - Read line using InputStream [duplicate]

Answer 1

It is possible to read input stream with BufferedReader and with Scanner. If you don't have a good reason,it is better to use BufferedRead (for broad discussion BufferedReader vs Scanner see.

I would also suggest using the Buffered Reader with try-with-resources to make sure the resource are auto-closed. see

See the following code

try (BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(inputStream))) {
        while (reader.ready()) {
            String line = reader.readLine();
            System.out.println(line);
        }
    }catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
